Well being a parent is special for me because there is someone who I cancare, love, share everything with them now and forever… we can show the worldthat we have the ability to bring up our kids in the right way and make themthe right citizen of the world … we can be very very close and love our familythan anybody else in the world..being parent gives us positive energy also…!!

Amita Sharda

Being a parent is so very special to me……the best thing my kids make me feelso special and important all the time, the best part of parenting everything isconnected to mother & father…being a parent really means that you’re therefor your child. Because in the future, your child will remember all the timesthat you were there and all the times you weren’t and by watching them we canactually make out how were we when we were kids we can live our childhoodagain. It’s such a Big opportunity given by God to us to raise our kids so thatthey become perfect individuals….we as parents can mould them in kind &good human beings…when my first baby was born the pain was unforgettable butlaying there staring at my baby awake and in front of me, her tiny body tightlywrapped. That is a face I will never forget and a memory that will never fade.That is a face that I will fight for until the day my body is ready to give up.From the moment our kids came into our lives it has been impacted with agreater sense of endless joy, soothing love, unbearable fear, a red light angerto protect and a worry with no relief. We as parents have to learn a whole newset of rules, boundaries. We have to learn to teach and be careful what weteach. Most importantly we are responsible for another life and every aspect ofit. There is now someone else on this earth that is more important than us.It’s the greatest feeling in the world. Becoming a parent is a dream come true,I have become more responsible person, and I have become the woman that I wantto be. Being a parent to me is Love that will never fade. Thanks!

That’s What I call the WOW moment..!! Love you myshining star Sakshi and 3 cheers for One happy mommy Sandhi the great and onelittle princess Aditi for making me a proud father and a husband!

Igenius Programme first and foremost let me thank you for letting us sharesome precious moments and memories and share among all! Ever since I have beenblessed with the parenthood I have realized one vital reason why we are luckyand why are there parents! “Parents” the word itself is so emotional andexpressive. For a mother, God has given us the boon to feel a child all frominside and of course, after birth, with all our emotions and sentiments……it isour primary and wholesome duty to thank God by helping these masses of energy,our children grow up and be responsible citizens of the country. As a father heis there by the mother and the child to provide all sorts of support, be itmental, physical and of course financial. It is an absolute eternal bonding andthe most precious bonding that we share and very naturally is imbibed in ourchild. I still remember how I felt when my son first said ma ….it had broughttears in my eyes but the hug was even more stronger when both my parents huggedme out of sheer joy and the gesture made them so happy that I could What theyhad felt when I was a child and shared every little things with them. Theirencouragement, their patience, their guidance and above all their ability tocalm us down at any crucial time is what has made me a Mother to my 5year oldson…. It is their natural teachings and the valuable values imparted has mademe a mother that my at times say” amar shobceye bhalo ma” Parenthood is notjust a gesture or a practice but as the popular saying .We never know the loveof our parents for us till we have become parents….and esp. specially at thisphase of my life I realize how the two most beautiful and wonderful persons ofmy life have blessed me with, as they taught me have a heart of gold but letnot praise and envy capture…Be there for one who needs you especially the needyas you serve them U serve God and also us ..be humble yet Nobel and above allrespect not only the elder but also the young then love will shower on you andthese golden words are strikeed in my heart and as I serve the needy littleones I feel proud not of myself but my parents who have showed me a pathabsolutely magnificent as it gives me mental peace as I am not only mother to a5yrs old but 10 other little one who love and enjoy being with me and call memam ji! Thank You baba and thank u ma. There is no better way to say HappyParents Day but walk on the path you have showed me. Dear Prents it’s my appealand request to you all we are the manufacturers and so many precious diamondsand stars are our responsibility so let’s be there by their side and our lightbeams will help the little one inherit the self esteem and move aheadsuccessful in life. But Alas pl don’t forget the little ones who don’t have afirm hand of guidance or a lap to shed their tears on and two guiding light sothat they can scream out Ma, Baba….. They have done no mistake yet they face avery cruel life! It’s beyond imagination so when U wish and pray for Ur littlediamonds pl don’t miss them out. They need our wishes too and teach yr stars tolook upon them they are also our social responsibility!

The greatest feeling in my life was when I held my bundle of joy in my armsfor the first time. My beautiful daughter so angelic in her appearance. I hadnever played with a doll when I was young so I treat her and call her my dolleven today. I am very proud of her and wish to see her excel in all her aspectsof life.

We all love our parents but we realize their love towards their childrenonly after becoming parents. So many things done by our parents that made usunhappy during childhood are now important part of our parenthood actually. Iremember, I used to hate afternoon nap during my childhood but now whenever mydaughter denies for afternoon nap I always try to convince her that hownecessary it is. Now, when I am mother of a nine year old sweet daughter theneveryday so many memories of childhood and teenage reminds me of my parents. Imiss them and I love them a lot, especially when my daughter says,”Mumma, youare the best mumma in the world.” I am really enjoying being proud parent.Thanks to my parents for loving me so much and making me best mom to my darlingdaughter.
